Default Re: Auto Lift

I bought 2 fron Direct Lifts out of the Midwest - they were at Barrett Jackson and did a show special @ 1600 each plus install if u want that. For my use of "storage only" - they are perfect. I have had no issues, i did get the 220 motor at the same price as the 110. Very happy with the operation and cost/usage. All the talk about Chinese welding/steel etc has been unfounded by what i have seen so far.

----Just make absolutely sure you buy from a local supplier that will service whatever lift you do buy. Check how long they have been in business,,,etc. I have a two post and had them set up and install. Its all on them then. I am on my third two post now. First was a Conneticut company that I stupidly sourced out of Hemmings without doing due diligence and it was a fiasco. I gave it away. Second and third have been terrific!!!.....Bill S

Spent a year doing my homework,and talking to people that used and installed them maybe the info can help you . Bend pak IMO is the way to go. I personaly wouldnt get under a 1500.00- 2000.00 lift every day if you gave it to me. Best lift is a extra wide w the rails set apart[even a corvette fits on it and you have 9 inches extra under the car width [48 inches wide between rails]. 9000lb 9hd xw plus its 6'11 height under runaways matters, at least for me. If you dont need the extended height you can save a foot in length Notice how wide the uprights are compared to the car[dont have to fold in mirrors even on pickups]. Only down side is its a foot longer and wider than the smaller lifts. Couldnt be happier with it. They are only 3,150 on ebay and elsewhere [get the aluminum ramps option !]
